@plucky pilot link to that?
they havent announced 3060 yet
im find it
there are plenty of rumours about it, but as always, there are rumours about everything.
it says some time in nov
until we have a official announcement, dont bother thinking about it
and its 300-400
and now run the logic on what you are saying.
"wait for this card, that maybe comes out in november, that maybe costs 300-400"
yeah thats what i thought
what is the user going to be doing until then?
exactly
so another factor, if you need a pc now you might not be able to do 3060
we dont even know if the 3060 is gonna exist
also true
I'm going to vertical mount my gpu so I won't have to deal with cable management as much
@spice prawn i have a issue where the rx 580 doesnt want to work with any other monitor but mine
Anybody hear any news about white shrouds on the 3000 series?
I'd almost prefer a fe over the ones we're seeing but I don't know if I can get one in Canada.
true
im looking for white as well
been looking at it every day
hopefully one comes
Hope so, my build is white with a few black accents. I don't want a massive dark shroud right in the middle.
i love the design of the fe but i agree with that as well
if only they made white fe's
id buy instantly
The fe would look better in my case, got some other shiny metals around
wait for cable mod to sell a cord for it
nice
my vrms are silver and i got the tridentz neo
so might work
idk
My vrms are also silver, and the cables headed here now from cablemod have silver aluminum combs
@lone pond polish?
@spice prawn yes
but i dont live in poland exactly
anyways
Poland
yes
I'm tryna sell my 1060 6gb dual fan gpu
no selling here
Galax, Asus, and gigabyte usually release white editions of video cards
please asus...
hopefully they come out around the same time
i have the gigabyte 2070 super hoping to get the strix
maybe idk yet
i dont see any white 3000 series listed yet
how risky is it to buy a 2080ti off a miner whos been using them for 4 months? its dirt cheap for the card it is, 160$
@pallid sequoia https://discordapp.com/channels/500085440221806603/589689072692494356/753371213350436934 have a look what i said there, then scroll a bit down and see the talk i had with him about it :)
hmmm, but i feel like 160 is too good to be true for a 2080ti he must be lying
as i said, that is up to you to decide on.
hes also selling 1070 ti's for 50 so i might just go with that to reduce the risk factor
i appreciate the help though

Looking to upgrade my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card for my Cyberpower Gamer Xtreme S156T PC. Any suggestions?
Perhaps an rtx card?
@jagged hare whats your cpu
and whats your budget
and are you ok with second hand
off of like ebay or something
good gpus for r3 2200g?
i wouldnt push it past something like a 1060 or an rx 580
rx 580 sounds good, thanks
GTX 1650 is a lower power option
that matches it nearly
i'm a bit late but it's a good option
iirc they're cheaper atm too
i might be wrong
Intel Core i5 7th Gen. Power Supply is 350 W
where do I go to ask about technical support for a purchase on newegg?
motherboards
yes
I'm down to about 4 different motherboards
and reading the specs are giving me a headache
I prices different too
I just can't tell if they can take the graphics card that I have or not?
what am I suppose to look for?
what graphicscard do you have?
I was just able to download my Desktop PC manual
my graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GTX1050-2GB
I'm looking to update my mother board
your card will work in any mainboard you can buy in regular shops.
I don't want to fire everyone off to you but it's not to 4 different motherboards on Newegg.ca for me right now I'm looking for recommendations really
just list them
and lets have a look at things :)
but, send them one at a time
dont want to make our antispam bot mad :)
it's not allowed
2sec
ASUS TUF Z390-Plus Gaming (Wi-Fi) LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z390 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASUS Prime X299-Deluxe II LGA 2066 Intel X299 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard
MSI MPG Z390M GAMING EDGE AC LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z390 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
MSI MPG Z390 GAMING EDGE AC LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z390 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard
i might get a GPU next month , i hope i can bring myslef to do it lol
IGABYTE H370 AORUS Gaming 3 WIFI LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel H370 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard
Gigabyte
that's the last of my spamming
sorry about it
@subtle holly give me a moment here
the second board is a different CPU socket. so that wont work for you.
WiFi is a requirement as well as 32GB of RAM if not more and to be able to have add an internal SSD to the new motherboard aka a PCIe NVMe M.2 attachment
Okay the second one is out
I have zero experience is reading the differences between these 5 motherboards
I told you what I'm trying to do
if I owe you guys money for your technical support fine lets work something out
I'm seriously not trying to be the worst end user in the world here
dont worry about it :)
could you tell me the price that you are seeing for the Gigabyte H370 AORUS Gaming 3 WIFI ?
see above @subtle holly
$408 plus shipping CAD
that is a hard NO on the price alone
$309.40 U.S.
yeah .. no.
okay it's too much?
for that board? yes
coming from Hong Kong that's why
on my end it is
you ARE located in Canada right?
except for the price on the last one willing to provide any other recommendations?
(i have to ask :) )
Yes I'm Canadian, sadly I'm not into Hockey as much as the general public is
Basketball used to be my sport growing up
good. so its just the newegg site being weird.
on the topic of the mainboards: The main difference is size and brand name
i cannot access the site directly, there is a bug that prevents me from seeing the CA site.
so i am pulling prices in a different way
it kinda does when you are getting the same thing :)
no need to pay double for the same thing :)
now, let me just list the main differences for you (not the technical differences)
I'm trying to figure out the best two or three from my list above
forget the prices
I'll figure that out
ASUS TUF Z390-Plus Gaming (Wi-Fi) <- identical to the next one.
MSI MPG Z390 GAMING EDGE AC <- Identical to the one above.
MSI MPG Z390M GAMING EDGE AC <- smaller board than the other two (microatx vs atx)
there.
their price is "supposed" to be in the 220-250 CAD range
NOT in the 400 CAD range
ASUS ROG STRIX B450-I GAMING AM4 AMD B450 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI Mini ITX AMD Motherboard
that is for a completely different CPU type
so it won't fit my graphic card?
you are asking in the west while looking to the east on that question :)
they are not related.
sorry, I got this last one when I looked for Canada sellers on newegg
I'm not trying to go left and right with you
that might be simpler for you :)
discord has built in voice chat :)
give me afew minutes I have to get my microphone and audio gear I'm deaf too
fair talk :)
Okay I'm ready
okay, do you see the voice chat channels on the left hand side?
I'm trying to call you right now
let me try and call you
Is 6gb if ram enough for 1080p and 1440p gaming on the 1660s?
@lone pond depends on what you're playing, but ram isn't extremely expensive and you can get 16gb for a reasonable price. I think 8gb is minimum for majority of games nowadays or something
just a reference, not sure how good that exact ram is
i'd say go for a bit more if you can afford it considering you have the 1660s which is still a fairly good card
HELLO ALL Thanks for accepting me.
Has there been a list of what 3080s will be available? Will there be a pre order? Sorry if this has been asked.
Lots of 3080s have been shown, MSI, Asus, etc, just not sure when they’ll drop. We’re kinda on bare minimum info. Looks like 3080 FE at least will go on sale the 17th of this month. Also not sure what time though
Hoping they announce more info closer to drop
NDA raises 14th I think so that personal tests can be released and stuff
Thanks sir. I’ve looked at a few places and everything is basically a stock image. No details, but I’ll try the app again for Newegg.
Will there be higher end versions of the 3080 at launch?
As far as I know, I don’t think so
I’ve heard rumors of 20gb 3080 but that’s just a rumor
oh thats definitely happening. im getting a 3090 just to preserve resale value if they pull that “super” crap again where they release a boosted card for the same price as the original a year later
I feel like if you wait to buy parts for pc you’ll be stuck in an eternal state of waiting though, kinda sucks
Like I’d like to wait for the better version of 3080 but if I do who knows when it’ll come out
Will a GTX 1650 GPU be compatible with an HP Elite C2D?
so the hp elite c2d has a core 2 duo in it. It's not going to be enough to run anything and a 1650 will be very bottlenecked.
i agree
as in, will it work with it? yes it will.
if it is what you have, it is what you have.
and there wont be any problems with using the parts together.
it is "only" a 4/4 cpu
but in theory yes, it should work okay with a faster GPU
(i am talking about the 2300x which i take it is what you asked about @rich oasis)
I would honestly get a better gpu then unless you plan to upgrade the gpu in the near future

Interesting vid
I mean its more of a debate whether u should pay for a 500 card with gddr6 or a 700 card with gddr6x memory
I think most people wont care
hmmm
i think this is the 970 debate (after the 3.5+0.5 feature got figured out) all over again
didnt watch the video
but its a logical assumption from knowing about him and what he normally rumbles out
stick gpu into mobo slot, done..
dont know if you remember the 970 situation?
and how "suddenly" the card was bad?
the card didnt get slower
so basically hes saying the 3070 is a bad long term investment
from what i can gather
people just focused on what the tech journes ran around screaming about
If u could enlighten me i dont know what happened back than, was busy with other stuff Naed
but the benchmarks never changed
long story short
the 970 has 4 gigs of ram, 3.5 runs at full speed
0.5 does not
the info about it was a marketing cluster of fairly big proportions
all around it was just silly
BUT, the card had already been benchmarked and reviewed at that point
nothing had changed in that regard
but suddenly it was bad
specs on the card does not matter one single bit <- that is my point
what matters is how it performs
if amd/nvidia released a card with ddr1 memory on it, that could beat a 2080TI i would happily buy that
it does not matter one single bit what the specs say.
Like i said, people wont care much
i am going to say that there will be a fairly big chunk of people that will complain about the card using gddr6 (non-x) and they will say that alone makes it "bad"
just like how people complain about VRM quality on the board they are using to run a stock cpu on.
does that make sense?
basically, my stance is: people will be very very silly about this
....
God i wish humanity wasnt so easy to understand

Welp if I put in that bet i would say their probably will be more people who get the card and complain after they get it that its missing the (x)
This card is fairly popular so im seeing Tunnel vision happening

Could be alot of new pc users coming from console this year than previous
its "interesting" that a single graph (without actual proof to back it up) can make people loose their minds about things :)
I lost my mind to it too so im part of the problem
also, the whole "nvidia priced the card to lure over console owners"..... that is just bollocks
it makes zero logical sense
congrats, you have now paid 499 for the card
what about the rest of the system?
if you mean "silly" funny, then yes :)
https://www.anandtech.com/show/8935/geforce-gtx-970-correcting-the-specs-exploring-memory-allocation <- if you are curious about what i talked about :)
Im not getting a new card for long while so this is just all entertainment for me
https://www.anandtech.com/show/8568/the-geforce-gtx-970-review-feat-evga <- that is the original review of the card
that was in late september 2014
Ill read it up in abit
and the correction was in late january 2015
Oof
its an interesting point in GPU history
I was still a console user back than
:)
I only got into pc 2 years agoish
heck, IF i actually had a TV i would be tempted to grab one of the upcoming consoles
ah, so you are indeed a young grasshopper in the field :)
it is going to be interesting to see how things pan out in regards to exclusives and subs this time around
because MS announced that EA got rolled into their xbox game thing
I probably left at the worst time because they just started making it more affordable or more value is the term?
its really hard to argue that the current xbox games pass is a bad value sub
You get alot of games +
aye
And i think they might be getting rid of xbox live sub service?
and they are backed by some heavy hitters
Maybe tieing it to game pass?
i have not read up on their plans for the sub yet
was planning on doing that when we get closer to the actual launch etc
just to have some idea about how it works
and as should be visible here in the server, i am fairly curious about a lot of things in this "space"
Well if they did tie game pass to xbox live gold than wow, games and multiplayer, but you wouldnt own the games tho...
yeah, that is the wrinkle
but again, all it takes is some creative "if you have played/spent X" you get X% rebate on buying it
there are many ways they can make it very tempting for people
Maybe thats a good idea
"You played 200 hours of cod 6 modern space war, would you like to buy the game for $30 off?"
I know
but it is something that could be done :)
Playstation feels in the dust right now in comparison
on that specific "front", yes.
Wanna know the biggest scam I did
I sold a 2070 super for 50$ LOO
LOL
He got scammed

Anyone seen this yet? videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-synthetic-and-gaming-performance-leaked
Man I don't know if I want these cards if they're going to be releasing a 3070ti with way more vram
Like 16
But then again if they say the most modern games don't use that much then I guess who cares
Got a new GPU and
It wont show my screen
Yes
GPU is on with LED

rtx 3080 benchmarks

looking like 50% better performance than 2080s
Yeah not looking the best
Either way I don't think I'm.gonna have to upgrade again for a long time
Since I don't care about 4k
im sticking with 1440p for awhile
until 4k is as cheap as 2k monitor
at same good quality
Do you guys think the 3080 is going to get scalped like the 20 series after launch?
no idea
Guess I'll wait than
I dono if i wanna wake up at 5 am and maybe spend 4 hours staring at the page screen
Does anyone have a list of all RTX graphics cards that have a USB Type-C with VirtualLink port? It is annoying that there isn't a filter for it. I'm considering purchasing a new card and would rather make a leap in features than a step.
@pliant spade only the 2000 series
I dono if i wanna wake up at 5 am and maybe spend 4 hours staring at the page screen
@violet dock
I'd rather do it to get a 3080 instead of doing overtime at work
Do it while on overtime at work, just sit in the bathroom and no one will know you’re even there 
i see one on ebay for 85
ok
so, no more than that
i thought it would sell for like 60
i see most ebay listings in the 105-140 range
with only one for 85, so i think if you listed it with good pictures for 110 + free shipping you would sell it soon
cool thanks
What size GPU would i pick to comfortably handle two monitors plus two tv screens in a office setting?
If anyone is looking for a 2080S for a decent price get in touch with me. Purchased in June 2020 .

I need help with my GPU
Brand new, LED, Fans work, plugged in.
The screen says no signal
I don't have windows installed yet.
I also dont have a USB windows or a DVD to put the disks in
Oh
Oops
Forgot
Uhhh
I realized over my stupidity that
I needed to put the software on a DVD player
Since the software is on a uhh
CD
Ok so
How do I install windows 10 on my PC with a GPU that has no software
Also my GPU says "video ready"
so not sure if it already has it
@lone pondjust search it up
im assuming you ahve windows on a flash drive already
its really eaasy
nope
Only CD and code
Windows 10 pro, CD and code
GPU CD
I do have a flash drive
That's empty
Have you checked that the monitor cable is plugged into the gpu rather than the plug on your motherboard?
It's in the GPU
I need to install software
To my GPU
I don't have windows
I have a link to the GPU
If it's preinstalled then I have no idea
Probably not
Basically,
HDMI in the GPU but GPU has no software, only CD
I don't have a disc tray
I also dont have windows installed, I only have a code and CD
Without the GPU I cannot install windows
I believe, without a doubt that I'm in a pile of human waste.
So, is it possible to grab my old SSD and put it into my new PC that may have windows installed
When using my old PC before I had to switch things from sending into that SSD
where did this 2060ti rumor originate? it makes no sense for them to launch a ti before a normal version and with no other ti’s in the series. i heard they had scrapped the ti naming scheme altogether and were just sticking with super

@cerulean rover see above. relevant info for you.
this is not good
Interesting
Ok to simplify Xfx 580 4gb doesn’t want to boot unless it’s my monitor from home whenever I try another pc same monitor it works perfectly but as soon as I test with another monitor it doesn’t boot I’ve had run a DDU and reinstalled and everything I don’t know what to do
guessing you are using hdmi?
Yes
not what i am asking :)
The dp works on my monitor the hdmi doesn’t work for them
Yes 3 different hdmi
Moved around the monitor
Each one
Sorry I’m confusing lol
Ok they have tried 3 different hdmi 2 monitors and one tv
what cable are you using?
Hdmi 2.0
is it 1 cable or different cables you have been using?
Different cables
okay.
It’s okay if you don’t know I’m stumped to
Issue only happened with drivers updated
i am trying to understand what you have tested and what you have NOT tested. (before i say if i understand it or not)
Ok cool cool
My monitor my aoc with amd free sync always works there monitor some 60hz Samsung and Visio tv never displays
Any idea I noticed whenever I booted and free sync will always turn itself on again
When I turn it off it still turns on by itself
that part "turn on by itself" <- sounds like a short circuit of some kind
my main problem here is trying to keep heads and tails of what you are saying and what it actually means :(
i know mate, i know.
I’ll try again when I’m at my pc
It’ll be very very detailed and I’ll make sure it sounds right
fair enough :)
should I get rtx 3070?
isnt that more of a question for you to answer :P
Personal preference @native lance
Nvidia sure was aggressive with it's Ampere pricing, right? Maybe not as much as you have been lead on to believe. I detail how the true MSRP may be artificially elevated by October, and the elaborate effort put into making this happen. Also some AMD RDNA 2 leaks...
0:00 Whe...
i reccomend people watch this
Moore's law has bugger all for brains imo
?
99.99999% of his content is click bait and just plain wrong
because that is what history has shown his content to be.
i dont think so. I just started watching him recently and all his info seems to be right
if he makes you happy, good for you
i find him to be inaccurate and a hack at what he does.
but that is my personal opinion on it :)
yooooo moores law is dead my favorite
steve from minecraft talks about tech pogchamp
So I’m doing a ftn build for my brother it’s literally just gotta play fortnite and cs go on 720 high or 1080 med/low it’s going with 4gb ddr3 and a i53570 I’ll prolly upgrade the ram soon but I’m just trying to figure out what low profile gpu to get I feel like a 1650 or 1050tinis overkill
so im going to get the 3080
just because the 200 dollars more than the 3070 when it comes to specs is worth
does anyone know where and how I can get or preorder the 3080 ?
no preorders
@eager spindle read reviews on the 16th before you order anything
^
i want a 30 series, but i would have to upgrade cpu
okay thank you
what gpu should i upgrade to from a 1660
i had a 1660, i upgraded to a 2060s, i saw a big difference in my gameplay
@abstract folio
Niiiice
What GPU do you guys recommend I get to play the Avengers?
Hey what do y’all think abt the 750ti for low/‘med 1080 fortnite or high 720
@plush garden free??
yea
Bro they work?
no
@gray narwhal get something else
750ti is pretty crap
like
it's at modern iGPU levels
Ok gotchu thx
Yea it’s gotta be lp tho
And my brother is cheap lol I built everything and pushed for everything but gpu and he doesn’t wanna spend the 140 on a 1650 lp so I’m looking at a 1050 lp for 100
The rtx 3070 will be able to run 1440p 165hz right?
Yea it should for sure especially since it is supposed to be on par with 2080ti
Yh
And will it run it smoothly or is it worth getting the 3080?
I would just get a 3080
Higher chance of getting 1440p 165fps in games on ultra
And of course more frames in rtx games if your excited about that
Hmm ok thanks and one thing how much more is it?
700 msrp
So 200
Its worth it imo
This is not the 2070s vs 2080s
When the 70 series was worth it because the difference wasn't vaild enough
Now it is
Yup
Anyone know graphics card good for avengers since I can't seem to find any 1060's
Avengers? That a game?
Yeah it came out recently I believe
Haven't heard of any mainstream avengers game for pc, maybe I'm out of the loop :)
Well it is not too popular I belive
its pretty new so yeah not much news about it
I'm a huge fan of the comics and movies so I decided why not get the game, but I can't run it due to my graphics card 🙃.
it seems very unfinished
if you got it on steam and have less than 3 hours you can refund @high zinc
what do you guys think about the Auros 3080 Master 10g?
So I'm new to this "binning" stuff
Does this mean that I have a 30% chance of getting a card that performs worse and gets way worse fps? Is it a big difference generally? (referring to my future 3080) Starting to get paranoid tbh
Hardware news this week talks about the RTX 3080 & 3090 reviews, binning, and water blocks, but also AMD Zen 3 announced announcements and Xbox Series X & S prices and specs (and more).
Sponsor: be quiet! Pure Base 500DX (on Amazon https://geni.us/fIdH46k)
Sources & show note...
Doesn’t binning mean having it overclocked out of the factory
@cold stream its 2 hours
I thought it meant that you get a worse version of the card
Whole concept is confusing to me tbh
nah binning means that the manufacturer increases the core and memory clock of the chip by default out of the factory
Basically you are buying something that is already overclocked
So that's good
yes
Sothey say I have a 60% chance get a better clocked card and 30% chance of getting a normal (average) one
So you don't actually lose is what I'm hoping.
Basically but with default overclocked ones you are guaranteed a better gpu
The 60% you mean
no you are guaranteed one
because it is overclocked by default
they wouldn’t just sell you a stock card even though it’s branded as overclocked
That's assuming I buy an OC card
Yes but if you buy a regular card you will get a regular card
There is no gambling there
So where is this binning fear from?
Just hoping you get an even better clock?
Ok well thanks for the help
binning is guaranteed better clock
there is no gamble
You order a binned gpu, you get better clocks
Well to put it simple you order an overclocked card you get an overclocked card
I mean it's not labelled as "binned" right so you don't know
You order a regular card you get a regular card
Ok
they aren’t going to label it binned, they label it overclock or super clock because it is overclocked out of the factory
binned just means they overclocked it
no you are guaranteed what you buy
there is no catch
Ok. So I shouldn't even bother with the binning stuff. Steve is just talking about how many cards are gonna be OC and not OC
yeah what he was saying is that some manufacturers will be overclocking theirs, and some won’t. He didn’t say that they will give overclocked cards at random
Alright. So what I see is what I will buy. Thanks for clearing that up I definitely was thinking that wrong
Yes. And no problem always happy to help a fellow gamer
Gamers unite
nah binning means that the manufacturer increases the core and memory clock of the chip by default out of the factory
no???
That's what I read before and part of why I was confused
So back to the GN video that means 30% of 3000 cards will be "average" binned does that mean they'll be worse?
I don't like the idea of potentially spending all that money to get a half functional card
Yeah that’s a lil sketch
all of them will be fine with normal boost clocks and everything, bin 0 (the 30% okay bin) will just do worse at overclocking than the other bins
Oh. like get hot faster or just straight up no be able to overclock
Fine tho most ppl like me won't be massively OCing their cards
you should still be able to overclock a little unless its like the worst bin ever
Whatever at least we have a 70% chance of getting something above average
Theres a 30% chance that you get a lower spec card?
i wouldnt say its random
if u get a lower tier model vs a high end one like ftw3 ur probably gonna get a lower binned chip
Hey, hoping this is the right chat for this issue. I'm attempting to build a PC and I've made it about 2/3's through. I just hit a blocker issue though. The graphics card I bought has a 8 pin with a 6+2 (STRIX AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT) port that connects to the power supply but the cable WASN"T PROVIDED. So I'm over here flipping my crap because customer support couldn't help me either. Anyone got any assistance? I already went to Corsair's website and I found the exact item I need, but it's outta stock. Just great.
I have a the link to the cable but NewEgg is a little jelly of me posting a Corsair link lol
what psu?
the psu should have a bunch of 6+2 pin cables that came with it
@fervent pulsar stock will go in minutes. The website will be down. Prices will increase if you miss launch. Nvidea doesn’t plan to make a lot of money on the first round.
I talked with NewEgg customer support and they said the cable didn't come with
Can I not send pictures here?
Ye you can
u need to be level 3 to post most links and photos for anti spam/troll stuff, should be able to post them in #building-and-recc-chat tho
I'll post the graphics card port on there just so y'all can see what I'm talking about. I prob sound like a mad man cause I got no clue what's goin on
What does a binned gpu mean? Just lower performace/ability to gain performance?
its how good the silicon is, ie how efficiently it can reach a certain target and how high it can go
Ah ic now
When we will be able to buy rtx3070
oct
first week
they will come out
Few weeks?
and in a week or 2 u can preorder
the preorder got pushed
cuz the reviewer outside canada and usa
didn't get their cards to review
And first benchmarks will be in october?
so
pushed it
@lone pond re: binning on cards. Dont worry about it.
👀
@bleak sandal is there a chance that you could understand the subject you are talking about before you talk about it?
Worrying is what I do when I lack info but i guess they won't just be selling crappy underpowered cards to random people
Thanks
its a complex topic that has some fairly simple sounding answers. But you need to understand how it works to NOT misunderstand the simple sounding answers :)
"Does binning matter (for the regular consumer)?" No.
but but, it sounds like it makes a given thing better or worse?
Meaning I will still get the power I want out of my card
yes
its not a function/feature that is for you (the consumer) to worry about
unless ur trying to set the hwbot highest score or something its not a super big deal
Who does it affect if I may ask?
you want the technical answer or the simple one?
give a technical and then a tldr
how many chips of a given model that a manufacturer can make per day/month/year
I don't want to be a bother if it's not important
Thanks anyway
that is the really simple answer
and dont worry, you are not a bother. you are just asking questions.
I like answering questions :)
So they will just make less chips, worse case, not crappy ones?
Well that's not have steve from nexus made it sound
I always come away from his videos with more anxiety and questions than before
as Nachos mentioned above: IF you are trying to get the highest HWbot score. It becomes something that matters.
What's that? For extreme overclocking?
yeah
re: Gamers Nexus: Their audience is in my opinion, NOT the regular consumer
getting bragging rights on a benchmark lol
naed how does binning matter for non consumer use cases?
Well they should change the name from gamers nexus to not the regular consumer nexus lol
re: non consumer cases: You mean in the sense of voltage curves and die defects?
i guess? just in general
ye
with the TU104 core instead of the regular TU106
But out of curiosity so binning does actually mean the card is worse, bc the article above talks about inferior chips being partially disabled and sold as a lower end one, it's just that "worse" won't be something the average gamer will notice
that is a case of binning
ya the 2060 thats really a 2080
it was a "better" chip (from a feature POV), but not quite the full deal
What you mean feature
2sec
its a cut down 2080 right?
yes
is that kinda like the situation where somebody got a ryzen 1600 which was really a 1700 they forgot to lock the extra cores?
where they just lock features and slap a lower tier name on it
basically yes
So in the case of 3000 series Steve was talking about, it might be a 3090 thats less powerful and named a 3080? Isnt there's big size difference that would be obvious?
feature = anything that differentiates it from a different Die
die = the chip itself
Nachos: for now, forget the KO question above. I found something a bit easier to explain :)
have a look at the above picture
Lol what is that a picture for ants
@lone pond open the original
and Nachos, as you might notice, there is a difference in the 11'th row
that is the vertex shader difference.
which is different for a number of reasons: We dont know the exact reason, only nvidia does. but normal reasons for the difference is the following:
is that not the core count?
Non-unified shaders?
re: reasons: product segmentation, ability of the die to reach/do X Y Z (voltage, coreclock, leakage etc etc etc etc).
none of those are things that we are going to be getting an official answer for anytime soon from ANY of the silicon vendors
vertex shaders being the shaders that deal with position/location
pixel being the ones that deal with colour
for this specific list, just consider it a "number"
Man this is quite the rabbit hole
I'll just be happy with the assurance my card will run as well as it's supposed to
:)
and this is why i said its a question with a simple answer
"its a complex topic that has some fairly simple sounding answers. But you need to understand how it works to NOT misunderstand the simple sounding answers :)"
next time you feel that you are getting confused about something @lone pond, please ask :)
Will do
3060ti is a rumor right?
3060 is a rumor but I don’t think it would be released
yeah maybe they might release it to tap into the market with a little lower budget
would do for a good card as long as it’s faster than a 2070 super
anything besides the 3070, 80, or 90 is a rumor
wait
3060????
watch the rumored 3060 be released and its more powerful than the 2080 ti 
probably would be faster than a 3070 super
3070*
it depends on nvidia
are the 30 series FE cards can only be bought at the nvidia store when release?
i see, guess ima have to stay up all night ;-;
9 AM EST THURSDAY 9/17
BEST BUY, NEW EGG, BHPHOTO, CDW, AMAZON
3080/3090 FE are already listed on best buy's website
so just find that page and click "notify me when available"
the founders edition will be available at sites like amazon or Newegg but it’s an nvidia brand so it’s not custom apart from a slightly binned gpu
@lone pond much appreciated for the info 👍
u got it dude, anytime 😎
try the website nowinstock .net also you can sign up for email/text alerts for all the different cards
so as soon as it is available for purchase they will let you know
alright bet, trying my hardest to get my hand on a 3080 lol
yeh i might end up waiting on it cause it looks like aorus' xtreme and the rog strix arent launching on the 17th
and i got my eye on those two
HEY GUYS IS THE RTX 3090 ANY GOOD?
NOPE
@wraith pasture go away, we dont like mods here in the serious part of the server :P
it is if you have the budget

would the asia horse cable adapters work with a 3070?
So im trying to isolate an issue with my gpu right now that seems to happen anytime i use the Radeon overlay feature thru Radeon software app.
For some reason when im playing a game and decide to alt+r to see the overlay it pops it up but than I get pretty bad stuttering after using it and returning to the game.
I found that my vram decides to hike up to 2.6 gb on idle and load, i have no other apps playing in the background that would facilitate that, so i dont know why my vram is so high on idle...
Im guessing this is why im stuttering in game but dont know how to fix it other than completely removing my gpu drivers and reinstalling them...
Btw this didnt start happening until a week or two ago, it was fine for a month
Really all im asking is if anyone else has had this happen to them or heard about it somewhere else so i dont feel like the only one dealing with this...

hih
@trim crown check to see if there is a program that acts kinda like task manager showing what programs take X amount of RAM but for VRAM instead. idk of any, but might be smth out there
Yeah I used task manager to see if i could find the culprit but to no avail
you enabled the row that you can see in my picture above @trim crown ?
Im gonna try doing that next time but i dont remember if I did that already, will see if it happens again. Im just gonna try and stay clear of the overlay altogether at this point...
here is a better shot of it
so you can enable it
it hurts nothing to have that info
notice its in the "details" tab
I know will just have to wait and see if it comes back even after i dont use the overlay, which is possible
kk
vram can also be eaten up by a browser not letting go
Chrome?
Yeah my comp was displaying that yesterday
Hmmm
in general, think about it like this: Any tab that does anything with "media" can potentially eat a LOT of vram
When i reset my drivers and clean restart I only use 600mb
keep in mind, using vram is not bad. as such
it is only bad when it prevents you from doing something
It apparently adds stuttering to my games?
this particular machine cannot have firefox and chrome open IF i also want to launch factorio
the vram is just not enough on this old card
Oof
nah, its fair
you have to keep in mind, my chrome is also not the lightest one around :)
Im just confused why this started happening literally a month after getting the card and having no issues
there is 8 windows and some 100+ tabs
driver changes, program changes
all are fluid things
does not have to be that.
it can just as easily be something else
my issue has nothing to do with the drivers
True just feel like it most likely is
its firefox being a collection of goose droppings
I dont have multiple things open when i do stuff
I usually just play a game with discord
Or use chrome with discord
Not very likely I mix the two
what i described above applies to my system :)
Yee
dont try to use it as a exact example of what is wrong with yours :)

Does the embargo on reviews of 3080s lift today? If not, does anyone know when it does?
the 16th
Got it, thanks!
but i would not be surprised if some reviewers "forget" that the embargo was moved from today to the 16th
Yeah, the rush to be first to publish and all
the "problem" will be, IF that happens, we dont know if they are legit unless nvidia lets the others post theirs too.
inv
the "problem" will be, IF that happens, we dont know if they are legit unless nvidia lets the others post theirs too.
Well I'm not planning to buy right away for a bunch of reasons, so I can thankfully be patient and see how things settle
if i want to get the Nvidia 3070 from where should i pre- order it ?" out side the USA"
there are, so far, no pre orders @orchid gust
so only on store ?
there are plenty of places you can sign up for notification when it is available. but no pre-orders
i think/speculate, that we will know more when the reviews are released.
Because we (the community) are light on information on that front too.
and it would make sense to release that info at that point in time.
true
does that answer it for you?
😄
I cant find the 2060s windoforce anywhere lmao
any other reccomendations for 1080 144?
i have the nvidia 2060s
performs good?
im happy with it
i am one to buy once every 10 years
i dont just game and tend to leave 10 prgrams open at once lol
hmm
but i dont have a diredct answer for you
im going r5 3600 rtx 3060s
but i found an article that may anser it?
you got a benchamrk you want me to try and ill let you know what score i get with it if i have it
I'm good. Thanks for asking tho
3900x isnt going to be comp. to my system tho
i dont have friends:/
oh wait sorry he was going to have 3600
he waited and got a bit new3er one but same budget
ryzen 3 3200g
how do you make it say ur specs on ur name?
i5 8265U
does the u denomiation mean anything
integrated graphics
userbenchmark?
i like how it calls you system a tre trunk for gaming
lmao XD
if u want to do ur own
i doubt it tho
i have an account but it loads it up like a comparison build
?
do you really want to know lol
yes
mine performs quit similarly and it will be abt 950
perifs. dont count XD
marked as purchased
my bad
price to performance
everything
render, compress, zip, have millions of tabs open XD
but to be honest, future proofing
i know thats why i was avoiding it
i had a personal limit
no more then 500 for gpu and cpu
Im going to just game and have it as my rig for 5-10 years without upgrades
and those 2 were best bang for the buck with that stipulation
im getting my funds from sellimg my xbox
thats literally it
and just saving b-day $
im too young to work : /
youll get there soon enough
next big purchase will be a car XD
with this human malware stuff going on, it might be good your a kid ?
maybe
it sucks tho
no one wants you to do anything for them cuz ur a kid
assuming your irresponsible
smh
just keep showing that you are, youll find someone that aporeciates it
lol right
g'day
np man
I was planning on doing my first build with an i5 9600k and an RTX 2060 super do you think that GPU is a good choice
1000-1500 and yes it’s for gaming
Well the build I have planned is around 1200 without case monitor keyboard and mouse so I’m not thinking I can drop much more into the pc
get a 3070
Thanks
if you can find a 3600x for cheap thats better
